Tucker Carlson on Friday night mocked CNN executives for their optimistic subscriber targets for streaming service CNN+, saying their figures were 'even less plausible' than the numbers of those who voted for Joe Biden.
Carlson, whose Fox News network has delighted in their rival's struggles, was gleeful about the demise of CNN+.
The streaming service began on March 29, and ended on Thursday - less than a month after its launch.

It’s all true and I have unicorns in my yard every morning./s
Tucker’s right. The left is wrong.
“’The company that employs Joe Rogan, the streaming service Spotify - and you may not have seen this story – had to offload the Obamas to whom they had paid millions and millions of dollars,’ said Carlson.
‘Why? Because nobody wanted to watch the Obamas, either.
‘Because they had nothing to say. Because they’re banal. They’re not interesting in any way.’”

not a lot of people knew this..

If you watched CNN or MSNBC....you wouldn’t know about the Spotify drop of the Ms Obama-show. If you go back to the 2020 summer-period....this was apparently ranked almost at the top of the charts oddly enough.
There seems to be some type of fakeness to the listening numbers (for 2020). Maybe bots?
“What would you say you do here?”
Tucker! You rascal!
Shadenfreude overload!
CNN+ got what? 10,000 subscribers? I wish MSNBC would do the same - I doubt they’d get 500 people...
There are a lot of cord cutters who want live news.
Piers Morgan’s new show on TalkTV has seen a slide in viewership so bad in just the first few days that executives at Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation (AKA Fox News Corp.) are discussing how much of a failure he is, and others are already privately comparing the disaster launch to the short-lived failed CNN+ streaming service.

Morgan’s abject failures may also be decimating the entire TalkTV network effort, as his Wednesday guest Sharon Osbourne — who has her own show on the platform — also dropped in ratings after she appeared with the bumbling British broadcaster this week.
My wife wants to subscribe to Comcast cable. OK. my default cable TV channel is TCM, and we pay an extra $10 per month to Comcast so i can watch TCM. (based on how many channels we actually watch, the average cost per month is about $7 per channel, so it's not that much extra anyway).
yeah and ?...................we all know its the truth
The deal with Spotify had to be a payoff. They couldn’t possibly have thought the Obamas would really generate the kind of viewership that would justify the absurd contract they gave them.
The same goes for Netflix which is now deeply in the red.
The same goes for the book deals he got.
Leftie execs at these corporations showered tens of millions of dollars on Obama because they worship him, not because it ever made any kind of business sense.
He also mocked Spotify’s multimillion dollar deal with the Obamas, which the former president and his wife ended last week, unhappy with the limitations Spotify placed on them.

Yeah, I wasn’t aware of this either. So the BroBomas dumped because Spotify wouldnt allow them to spread propoganda? I wonder what limitations there were that cause that Greedy F**k to dump out of a multimillion dollar deal?
CNN MINUS
“I wonder what limitations there were that cause that Greedy F**k to dump out of a multimillion dollar deal?”
Those two race hustling grifters wanted Spotify to pay them millions but not to have exclusive broadcast rights. That’s the story they are sticking to. I’d say paying those two lazy POS what amounted to 3 million per for eight podcasts over two years was too hard to swallow a second go round for Spotify.
He is close to getting fired from NeverTrump News claiming the election was stolen.
“Tucker Carlson on Friday night mocked CNN executives for their optimistic subscriber targets for streaming service CNN+, saying their figures were ‘even less plausible’ than the numbers of those who voted for Joe Biden.”
Will the Murdock wives or Bret Baier try to get Tucker canceled for questioning the scam election count?
We just joined the cord cutter ranks a month or two ago. We moved to YouTubeTv - not crazy about their politics but weren’t crazy about the cable service we dumped either. What I like about YouTubeTV is you can take and delete all the channels you don’t like or move them to the end so you don’t have to scroll through them. CNN, MSNBC — gone. I’d get rid of the rest of the alphabets but my wife likes some shows.
